Why am I getting 2 solutions for this ODE with one set of initial values?

Note: I am a beginner in math and in Matlab, any additional wisdom is gratefully received.
So, I'm getting two solutions for this singular ODE, Wolfram A gets one. My y vector in
[t,y] = ode15s(...)
is giving me a size(t) by 2 matrix. And resulting in a plot that looks like:
Here's the equation: xy''+ y' + xy = x . My code attempt to solve it:
tspan = [1e-4 50];
[x,y] = ode15s('p2ODE',tspan,[0 1]);
plot(x,y);
function:
function dxdt = p2ODE( t , x )
y = x(1);
yPrime = x(2);
dy = yPrime;
dyPrime = (-1/t)*yPrime - y + 1;
dxdt = zeros(2,1);
dxdt(1) = dy;
dxdt(2) = dyPrime;
end
But here's Wolfram A solution samples:
